Diamond Head

The summit of this 760-foot extinct volcanic peak offers 360 degree views of Oahu. Once used as a military fortification – the views extend from Waikiki and Honolulu in one direction and out to Koko Head in the other. On a clear day, you can even see the outlines of Maui and Molokai from this vantage point. There is a ¾ mile trail to hike to the summit. As you walk – note the color of the vegetation. If the mountain is brown, Honolulu has been without significant rain – if the trees and undergrowth are glowing green – it’s the wet season when rare Hawaiian marsh plants revive on the floor of the crater.
